Thread Name: BS: Read any good books lately?
Subject: RE: BS: Read any good books lately?
I have just finished reading Birdsong by Sebastian Faulks. It got glowing reviews and I was urged by my book reading friends to reaf it as it is considered a twentieth century classic. I would bwe very interested to know what others think. I thought it was a very flawed and unrewarding book. Am I missing something ? It cannot compare, IMO, with Joseph Boydens book Three Day Road, when it come to WW1 stories. Any thoughts ?
